    Back in. My only goal this month is to beat last month's total, which shouldn't be too hard, theoretically. Trying to up the mileage though to be competitive in theBigYin's classic challenges and not finish DFL (I guess that's better than DNF though :wink: )

    Mar 1: 10.7
    Mar 2: 25.2
    Mar 4: 0.9 (flat tire on way out the door :angry:)

    3/5: 14.2
    3/6: 14.1
    3/7: 19.5
    3/8: 11.5
    3/11: 13.1
    3/12: 15.2
    3/13: 13.9
    3/14: 10.5
    3/15: 18.1

    Total for month: 167

    March Goal - 80 miles
    Feb Mileage - 75.60 miles
    (all indoors, too much snow here!)

    Mileage so far...
    9.6

    And I need to find a trail-a-bike for my youngest so we can hit the state park trails once the weather warms up (it doesn't warm up here for another month or so and her training wheels make it TOUGH on dirt/rock trails)

    Mileage as of 3/20 - 45.60

    We still have snow on the ground and today was a high of 21 degrees. Come on Spring!!

    240 miles YTD, 77 miles for March. This morning's commute was -9F! I am officially sick of winter. Fortunately the forecast looks like its finally on its way out. Bring on road/gravel/mtb season! At this point I'd just be happy to ride without a balaclava and goggles!
